Gabagesic Gel is a combination medicine used to treat neuropathic pain. Neuropathic pain is a chronic, progressive nerve condition in which the neurological system is injured or malfunctioning, resulting in nerve pain. Amputation of limbs, diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage caused by high blood sugar levels), alcoholism (abundant alcohol consumption), and chemotherapy can all cause neuropathic pain.
Gabagesic Gel combines three medications: Baclofen, Gabapentin, and Lidocaine. Baclofen is a skeletal muscle relaxant that relaxes muscles to relieve pain and discomfort. Gabapentin helps to relieve nerve pain by binding to a specific location on voltage-gated calcium channels. Lidocaine alleviates pain by blocking pain signals from nerves to the brain. Thereby, Gabagesic Gel aids in the relief of neuropathic pain.
Gabagesic Gel is only for external use. Depending on your medical condition, you should use Gabagesic Gel for as long as your doctor prescribes it. Some common side effects, such as itching, irritation, redness, and a burning sensation at the application site, may occur. These side effects do not necessitate medical attention and will gradually subside. However, you should consult your doctor if you are experiencing these side effects regularly.
Do not use Gabagesic Gel without a doctor's advice if you have a skin reaction or irritation to any medicine. Consult your doctor before using Gabagesic Gel if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and all the medicines to rule out any side effects. Limited information regarding using Gabagesic Gel in children is available, so please consult a doctor if you have any concerns. Do not wrap or cover the treated area with a bandage unless otherwise directed by your doctor. Gabagesic Gel should not be used in higher doses or on larger areas of skin for longer because it may cause side effects.
